Parts Of A Flower Lesson Printable
My son is currently learning about flowers and their role in plant reproduction. We could have just read about flowers and called it good, but what’s the fun in that? We decided to make it more hands-on flower lesson. Here’s how you can, too.
Head outside and collect different types of flowers from your flower beds or flower pots. Notice their varying colors, shapes, sizes, and number of petals. You can even grab a bouquet of flowers from the floral section of your local supermarket.
Identify wildflowers using a wildflower guide. You can find wildflowers in a field, in the woods, or even along the road. The types of flowers you find will vary throughout the growing season.
Dissect the flowers you collect so you can study their parts up close. Use this flower dissection post as a guide. You can also check out my botany Pinterest board.
Add Art to Your Flower Study
We love adding art to our history and science activities. ChalkPastels.com is one of our favorites. Check out their Backyard Nature Video Lessons.
